buying alcohol isn't a very thoughtful gift idea imo, untill i was introduced to 'bulls blood'

if he's into a good red, he'll never forget you for it

Personal favourites in the $30ish price range are Pepperjack Shiraz and Annies Lane Merlot

 

but wine is a very personal taste so it might be better if you can come up with a different idea 

Walk in the door, right hand side straight down towards the back of the shop.  Pick up a staff member on the way but some of the bottles have staff reviews written for them.  It's pretty good.

lis, I would love a bottle of $30. wine for my birthday.  I think it's a great gift idea.

It can be a lovely gift.  I bought a bottle of red wine for the X and it's  a Portuguese one called Lab.  He loves the dog.  He wanted to save it, which is just as well because it only cost about $10 and might be rubbish.

 

well.... if alcohol is no good try dancing nekid in front of him.

 

never seen a man who didn't like that.

Good Morning Joz.

 

Wine was always my drink of choice.

Best if drank in moderation. (like many other alcoholic beverages).

But you especially never want to get sick on wine. 

 

Hope you had a wonderful day.

I know I am. 

g'day goblins

 

i've been known to guzzle anything alcoholic

 

 

these days i might enjoy the good stuff (i do hope lis considers my recommendation ..if not..maybe try it one day for herself) perhaps once or twice a year, or none at all, depends

Ya' know there's a Shiraz called Yellow tail and it's made in your own back yard [Australia] I buy it here in the states all the time, not real expensive but for the money it's very good in my book. I've had some more expensive wines that weren't as good. Good luck.
